lyrics

Barking at the altar of the king and queen in a house of spare parts with the fools
They were talking, mocking, rambling and deciding with their gambling that the sky has to lose
So, they called up the senior of the green jumpsuit juniors to discuss just the relevant parts
But in a house built for tomorrow and an enemy of morals well, who’s in the dark?

I went to war so I could have a job and mama I’m a-covering ground
I’ve been in nine different states and one city away from the best time I could have
So, I’m polished with a gun and a memory of love but it’s chills headed down my spine
I was dead before I left and so I’ll try to forget that, this might be my time

Saying Water wasn’t working so I’m using Fire
“””””


There’s plastic in the ocean but a cardigan in autumn, so – nothing’s changed that I feel
And if the chief says to the high court that he’s the only mascot then, losers have to yield

Saying water wasn’t working so I’m using fire
